Ignorant people would see smoking as a sin, even Cardinals of the Catholic Church smoke.
Cigarettes were built to keep yourself warm in times of cold and if misused that's when it's a sin.
Anything in this world can be used for good or bad, and smoking is definitely not left out.
Too much of rice intake will kill you does not make eating rice a sin.

Nope.It becomes a sin when it turns into a habit same way over eating and getting drunk are sins.Anything that you cant put into subjection to obey you but instead you yield to it is easily is wrong and sinful.

A big sin, it kills and destroys d body. Almost like ya committing suicide, ya know dis tin will kill ya and ya go ahead to take it. Its just almost d same tin as islamic terrorist, d diff is dat while dey re entitled to 72 virgins and porn magazines in hell(eternal e*rection), u will die wifout none of dose promised to islamic suicide bomber

From the Islamic perspectives, it's not right because:-
*It can harm you.
*It causes one to waste money.
*Addiction to extent of one smoking during fasting.
*It can be unpleasant for people around you.

Now I speak from an Islamic Point Of View.

It is if you see it as a sin. But why should you destroy what God built? Leave your body sacred.
but again, most times the food we eat also 'destroy' what God built. I don't smoke though

Re: Is Smoking A Sin? by Joel3(m): 11:55pm On Feb 28, 2015
nothing is sin. what is sin in the land might nit be sin in other place. sin is a religious or traditional belief .

something this is seen as tabu or forbidden.

nothing is sin but man created the word sin .

Its forbidden and a sin to take anything dat is harmful to ur health.

Then taking junk foods should be a sin because its harmful to the health.

Do you know the amount of calories in icecream and a can of coke?

In that case we're all going to hell cheesy

To you it is not a sin, but to the average human race it is, so majority must carry the vote.

Lemme picture this scene, semi-fictional...




Ade rushed in from work. His bones felt like detaching from his lanky frame. Adeola, his opposite in frame dropped a wooden stool for him as she went to attend to culinarial calls. She propped her kid up her back and went in, but not after turning to take a long pitiful look at her Conductor-husband.


His job was one of the most underlooked when applying for job application grin yet she loved the fact that week in week out Ade Always brought "goodies" home. She went in..

------------------------------------------------


Ade stared at his wife's shape and turned away, several thoughts opposite of what he was supposed to think of flooded his skull which had no "helmet" to resist "collateral damage"

He stood up and Uche watched as his neighbor walked tiringly to "THE CORNER"

Uche called it that name because Ade did some unsavoury acts there. Uche shook his head as he watched Ade bump a stick of one of London's private company's cigarette-Benson and Hedges grin

He twitched and twisted his neck and inhaled, then he raised his neck up to the air and puffed with solitary comfort. He bent down and his nose played its part of the "Chimney job"

Ade's eyes were suddenly Red!!! The mood was about to be ignited. More non-discomfortable puffs, the nose equally as well and he was soon calm, as he shook of the ash. He held it stylishly between his hard fingers like a Russian gendarme would proudly hold a spear for ceremonial display.

"Iya Bola" a voice portraying "Agberonistic tendencies" blurted out from "The CORNER"

ADE WAS HIGH grin grin grin

Curtains Fall

......but not when you know it (the food) does. When you die because of smoke it is suicide( it is as good as getting urself poisoned). God doesn't condone that. I really don't hold anything against smokers, the word "addiction" is a b*tch.
